A hazy amber ale with a thin off white head. A musty hops aroma, doughy, sowing signs of oxidation. In mouth, a good malt, with nuttyness, and sustained British hops bitterness, with grapefruit in final. Medium bodied. Brewmaster reserv 2006. Bought at Booze Bros, August 2007.

Bomber. Something like a caramel aroma backed by citrus hop. Hard to get a good smell, as the foam exceeds the liquid. Hazy gold tinged amber color. The head is huge, but it’s not lacing much. (It did lace a lot after the foam reduced 2/3s) Medium body with sharpish carbonation. Mild caramel with a bit of harsh floral and/or citrus hop. Pretty tasty. Waters out a bit at the finish, but it’s even more bitter at that point. Probably a bit extreme for most UK residents.

Bottle from Bottle Barn; Nose of sweet flowers; like a floral nectar; copper with a thick, glass lacing, pale yellow head; flavor is sweet citrus with hop bitterness lightly lacing the background. Not like most ESBs but flavorful and enjoyable. I think my daughter in law Kiapepito would like this one.

Cloudy golden-amber. Earthy, fruity (peach, pear) aroma. Woody, earthy flavour with light citrus and some dusty yeastiness. Quite bitter but without much complexity.

Hazy amber/copper color with a very small white head. Aroma is a fresh blend of floral and citrus hops. Taste is bitter and floral, some citrus tones as well. Very crisp, but also smooth.
